NYC has been incredible, it's been non-stop family/friends/shopping/shows and we're loving every minute! I don't really have computer access, but I had to share the cupcake trails that I've been blazing through the city. I'm on a mission to try them ALL, and since we walk all day long, I won't feel the guilt. Let's begin with the famous Magnolia bakery~love the small town shop atmosphere and the serve yourself white pastry boxes. The cupcakes themselves are a wee bit heavy on the butter cream for my taste, not that it stopped me. Next up, Billy's Bakery (image above) in Chelsea, a tiny old fashioned style joint filled to the brim with originality, the cupcakes are DIVINE, not too sweet and fab frosting/cake ratio. We'll be hitting up a few more today...and I'll be sure to share. xoxo

Billy's are the best! You have to try Sugar Sweet Sunshine. Yumm-O! I do not know the exact address, but it is on the Lower East side. I used to make special trips down there when I was pregnant just for their Red Velvet cupcakes. xoxo

Were you a guest? Orin the audience? Sorry, I don't watch Dave... to busy putting my blog online at that hour.I have never tried the Magnolia cupcakes... but a friend tried their recipe... their frosting is too sweet for me.

About Me

{what I love} I love to gather friends and throw a great party, designing invitations that make people gasp with delight, the color yellow, my two beautiful daughters, nice weather, corona's w/lime, coconut lotion, my family & friends, piper lane, sipping a latte while browsing Anthropologie, hanging with my hubby on the beach and just enjoying life's little pleasures.
